The Developer that integrated FCKEditor into ColdFusion is Rakshith. On his blog there is a discussion of ColdFusion 8.0 and FCKEditor. The last comment on that blog entry is April 22, 2010. There Rakshith points out:

We will take a look at the new CKEditor in our planning for the next version.
...
CF9 has version 2.6.4.1 of FCKEditor.

.

It appear that FCKEditor introduced the Accessibility feature in version 3.

http://docs.cksource.com/CKEditor_3.x/Accessibility

Therefore, it appears that ColdFusion 9 or 9.01 does not support accessibility in cftextarea, but I have not tested cftextarea directly with a screen reader or other complaince checker. I was not able to find the specific version of FCKEditor in any of the code among its files.

It is FCKEditor 2.6.4.1 that is shipped with ColdFusion 9.0.1.

I just did a quick accessibility test on the rich text editor that ColdFusion 9.0.1 has against the accessibility features in http://docs.cksource.com/CKEditor_3.x/Accessibility

Basic Navigation - works on CF 9.0.1

Navigating Toolbar - doesn't work

Navigating Dialogs - works on CF 9.0.1

Navigating Context Menus - doesn't work

Navigating Style Combo Boxes - doesn't work

Navigating Color Selection Boxes - doesn't work

Editor Hotkeys - works on CF 9.0.1

So there is support of accessibilty in FCKeditor 2.6.4.1. But the support is not as complete as in CKEditor 3.
